Details

Statistical first release containing national and local authority level results for the early years foundation stage profile (EYFSP) assessments in England for 2013.

The release includes:

  • the number and percentage of children achieving at least the expected level in all early learning goals within an area of learning
  • the number and percentage achieving each assessment rating within the 17 early learning goals
  • the number and percentage achieving a good level of development

The main points from this release are:

  • for 2013, 52% of children achieved a good level of development
  • more girls achieved a good level of development; 60% girls compared with 44% boys
  • the average score achieved on the EYFSP is 32.8 points, just less than 34 points which would be the equivalent of children receiving the expected level across all early learning goals
  • the lowest proportion of children achieved at least the expected level in the literacy and mathematics areas of learning; more specifically, the lowest proportion of children achieved the expected level in writing (62%) and numbers (69%)
  • in comparison, 88% of children achieved at least the expected level in 바카라 사이트˜health and self-care바카라 사이트™ and 바카라 사이트˜technology바카라 사이트™
  • 87% achieved at least the expected level in moving and handling
  • the categories 바카라 사이트˜listening and attention바카라 사이트™ and 바카라 사이트˜understanding바카라 사이트™ had the highest number of children assessed as exceeding, both 19%
  • in comparison, 9% of children were recorded as exceeding in the 바카라 사이트˜people and communities바카라 사이트™ and 바카라 사이트˜technology바카라 사이트™ early learning goals

The new profile was introduced in September 2012 and the first assessments took place in the summer of 2013. The new profile바카라 사이트™s 바카라 사이트˜emerging바카라 사이트™, 바카라 사이트˜expected바카라 사이트™ and 바카라 사이트˜exceeding바카라 사이트™ scale are very different to the previous profile바카라 사이트™s 117 point scale and the number of early learning goals has been reduced. This will lead to a break in the time series as the results will not be comparable between 2012 and 2013.
